Thanks.
Indeed, the align does the trick. But what is the raison d'être of coupling the behaviour of \\ to the align parameter? I wouldn't have known out but for your reply. Is it something to add to the wiki on framed? (sorry, I am not apt at these things myself, too old ;-). Or can it be done generally?

Sorry, missed the inclusion of the output of the minimal example.

In the ConTeXT manual I see that a construct
\framed{A\\B\\C} should type set as three lines below each other:

A
B
C

But instead the \\'s<x-msg://2488/> disappear without a trace.
Did I miss some change on the use of \\'s<x-msg://2488/> in \framed?
Could it be a sideeffect of recent changes?

The \\ is converted to a space as you can see in the output, you have to set a align value to break the input into lines.

\starttext
\framed[align=middle]{A\\B\\C}
\stoptext
